Im a lifetime Windows users being lured over to Apple by the call of the 3G iPhone/MobileMe combination. Answers to the following questions would be much appreciated...
Im waffling between the 8 or 16GB model. How much actual storage on the iPhone is taken up by the applications/operating system etc and how much will be left for my own files? Anyone have a rough percentage estimate based on current iPhone models?
Since so much data can be stored on the Apple servers (er, I mean Clouds) using MobileMe, it sounds like there will be more actual storage room on the phone. If Im predominantly going to be using the iPhone for the MobileMe features and as an iPod (NO movie or video use), will the 8GB model be enough?
Will MobileMes Contact/Address feature offer the ability to print/export address lists or download them to Excel files? Will ALL the MobileMe features be available to Windows users or are there things that require use of a Mac?
Thanks for your help!!!

Why do you use the dock when you can just use the cable?

By dock I meant cable + dock. The cable is in my bedroom so I can charge the phone overnight and use it as an alarm in the morning.

Space on the iPhone is something that entirely depends on what you want to put on it. Lots of music can fill it up just as a few movies would. Just as with a hard drive a certain amount of space on the iPhone is overhead.
MobileMe is going to work exactly the same regardless of whether youre using a PC or Mac. IMHO, thats one of the reasons its no longer called .mac; to get away from the previously Mac-centric nature of the service.
